The Coast HX5 LED Flashlight has a simple on/off operation that provides a bright white illumination contained within a lightweight compact body. The HX5 has an output of 130 lumens and has a beam distance of 79 meters, using 1 x AA alkaline battery. Backed by Coast's 5 year warranty.

Your review: The reason I bought the flashlight was for the lifetime guarantee because I have purchased about 11 + flashlights that don't work after a month or so.

Pros: Warranty, bright, wide or narrow angle light, easy to carry.

Cons: Haven't met a con yet.

Coast HX5 Flashlight

Your review: I wanted a small, bright and simple flashlight that uses a common and inexpensive battery. I didn't want a laser, three levels of brightness or an SOS mode. It has become my favorite small flashlight.

Pros: This little flashlight is very bright. The adjustable beam is a great feature because there are times a wide nearby area needs illuminated and others when the light needs to reach out. The double clip allows me to clip it to the brim of a baseball cap and lights things up much better than any of the 5 or 6 elastic-banded headlights I have scattered around.

Cons: None except it appears they are getting difficult to find. I bought one at Walmart a few months ago and was using it while doing some work for a neighbor. She took a liking to the flashlight and asked me to pick one up for her. After trying at least 4 different Walmarts and finding none, I didn't know if the stores were dropping the flashlight or if Coast quit producing them. Although there's no reason to believe these flashlights aren't going to last a long time, I bought 5 when I found them here to make sure I'd have a lifetime supply.
